Hey all. I have nearly 150 jumps and have aggressively downsized, but only to make the Cessna look big and because I hate packing.

Since I'm already on such a small aggressive canopy, swooping seemed the logical option, so I've been turning lower and longer using the toggles.

It's working out perfect! The big drawback is this: I can't afford awesome swoop pants to get more speed, which left me wondering how many of you are stealing your wife/girlfriends capris (or wearing your own) for swooping?

If I'm not going to pay a canopy coach I sure as hell am not going to pay for swoop pants.

That sounds reasonable, but I'm looking for something lower drag, that looks like I was poured into and will eventually have to be cut out of with trauma shears.

oh! old school style suit then. Windmiller has a sexy red pleather one. You should definitely go that route too. Except maybe go with sparkly pink or neon yellow.

Try Rob Kruger, swooprobk@gmail.com or robert.s.kruger@facebook.com. He made swoop shorts for the whole South Africa team in 2008 and 2009, still using the 2009 version. Pants cost ZAR 1000, which is around $1100. Not as fancy as a deepseed version but a rigger can easily fix them when needs be
